Although it is the nearest airport to Lerwick, it is not Shetland's main airport, which is at Sumburgh. It is the one most used for flights to islands within the Shetlands. Tingwall Aerodrome has a CAA Ordinary Licence (Number P614) that allows flights for the public transport of passengers or for flying instruction as authorised by the licensee (Shetland Islands Council).[3] Airlines and destinations{{Airport-dest-list|Directflight[4] | Fair Isle, Foula, Papa Stour |}} Accidents and incidentsIn 1996, an air ambulance lost altitude while turning to final approach for Runway 2 in strong and gusting winds, crashing 1.5 km short of the runway. The pilot was killed, and the physician and nurse in the passenger cabin were injured. (Their patient had already been delivered to Inverness.) Lack of adequate ground lighting or other visual cues during the nighttime approach was a factor.[5] References1. ^Lerwick/Tingwall - EGET 2. ^UK Airport Statistics: 2007 - annual 3. ^Civil Aviation Authority Aerodrome Ordinary Licences 4. ^Directflight Ltd {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20081221024736/http://www.directflight.co.uk/shetland.html |date=21 December 2008 }} 5. ^{{cite web|last1=Air Accidents Investigation Branch|title=BN2A-26 Islander, G-BEDZ, 19 May 1996|url=https://www.gov.uk/aaib-reports/bn2a-26-islander-g-bedz-19-may-1996|website=GOV.UK|publisher=Department for Transport, Air Accidents Investigation Branch|accessdate=31 December 2015}} External links
